About Rhyl Radio
Rhyl Radio is proud to be the authentic voice of Rhyl — playing the music you love, delivering the local news that matters, and celebrating the businesses, places, and personalities that make our coastal town thrive.
Launched to serve as the ultimate home-town station, Rhyl Radio is the most exciting addition to the North Wales media landscape. It’s the go-to destination for local updates, lively chat, great entertainment, and music tailored specifically to our listeners. Whether you’re tuning in at work, in the car, or at home, Rhyl Radio is on air 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — accessible via smart speakers, online streaming, and mobile.
At the core of the station’s mission is a dedicated focus on local radio. While many commercial stations have networked their programming and moved away from the region, Rhyl Radio remains right here in the town. We are built on local pride and a strong connection to North Wales.
Craig Kennealey, Director of Programming at Rhyl Radio, outlines the station’s vision:
“We’re here to bring real local radio back to Rhyl. People want a station that actually knows where they live, talks about what’s happening on their doorstep, and supports the local high street. We’re not broadcasting from miles away — we’re right here, soundtracking life in Rhyl every single day.”
The station’s output reflects the energy of the town itself: upbeat, engaging, and proudly local. Programming features a vibrant blend of local news, showbiz gossip, traffic and weather updates, live interviews with local guests, and a music mix spanning classic hits to today’s top tracks. From breakfast to drive time, Rhyl Radio keeps you entertained and informed about everything happening across the region.
Whether it’s coverage of local events, what’s on at the Pavilion Theatre, weekend road reports, or celebrating everyday local legends — Rhyl Radio is where Rhyl tunes in.
The station is designed to be fully interactive. Listeners can request their favourite tracks, send in shout-outs, and join in the conversation via our website and social media channels. It’s local radio built around the people who live and work here.
